What You Will Be Doing

As a Sales Executive, you will be the face of our showroom, guiding customers through the exciting journey of purchasing their next vehicle. Your key responsibilities will include:

• Experienced: You must have previous experience selling cars.


• Enthusiastic: You are genuinely excited to connect with every customer who walks through the door, calls, or emails.

• Professional: You have a friendly, welcoming demeanor, backed by strong communication and influencing skills.


• Qualified: You hold a full UK driving licence (held for a minimum of one year) and are a competent driver.
